Hi Graham,
Thanks for this test - they'll be the first long TC games I'll have for v66 !
So far it seems to be stronger than the last verison....

Hi Richard,
I'm looking forward to seeing how the new Lime goes. It's certainly made a useful start here!
Do you know who the snarling horse refers to?
Cheers, Graham.

Well done Swami!
For those who've never used NagaSkaki, when you first start it up, the logo of a snarling horse appears before the engine loads.

I second that fully!
In particular, I also like the logo you made for BikJump.
